Independent surveys of teenage drivers

Reference no: EM131821130

The press release referenced in the previous exercise also included data from independent surveys of teenage drivers and parents of teenage drivers. In response to a question asking if they approved of laws banning the use of cell phones and texting while driving, 74% of the teens surveyed and 95% of the parents surveyed said they approved. The sample sizes were not given in the press release, but for purposes of this exercise, suppose that 600 teens and 400 parents of teens responded to the surveys and that it is reasonable to regard these samples as representative of the two populations. Do the data provide convincing evidence that the proportion of teens that approve of bans on cell phone use and texting while driving is less than the proportion of parents of teens who approve? Test the relevant hypotheses using a significance level of .05.
